Battalion commander Uruda Nika Bollokov has a few new toys..
Zvezda OT-26, used as a colour tester, PSC sent me some of these instead of Katyusha, figured cheap enough so not bothered, have five but this is the only one painted, Early war goodness. Nice little kit, six parts.
KV-1 company, again Zvezda, built for the upcoming tournament and to provide a bit of omph to the force, again six parts, basic models but they will do (lack of the hull MG is perhaps the most noticeable thing)
BM-13 rocket battery, well the start of it, need the two of them for the event so thats all thats built as yet, the other six are still in the boxes. Infantry components still in progress. Zvezda again, there is a theme here, an aura of a cheapskate perhaps. Not as nice as the KV-1 and OT-26 to build.. 28 parts each.. if anyone wants 15mm scale lorry wheels this is a good kit to get, all 10 are individual.
Coloured managed via the PSC Soviet armour spray, which sadly applied and ended up slightly waxy, not totally sure why as other sprays done the same day went on fine, may be more sensitive to moisture in the air or something. Not fatal but makes putting the black wash over a pain (needs a scrubbing action with the brush), followed by a simple layering of Olive Green and edge highlighting in Italian tankcrew highlight (same edge highlight as my British armour in fact, seems to work)
Battlefront Decals, in simple positions, perhaps not that accurate but it works for me.
Bit of weathering and job done
